Fashion Friday: Transitioning to Fall

I am so ready for Fall. You see, I love Summer and everything about it, but when August rolls around the heat in Texas becomes slightly unbearable. I feel like I’m getting a sunburn walking to my mailbox. You know all of the cute photos you see on Pinterest where women have on a perfectly draped blanket scarf over a button-down shirt or a vest over plaid? Yeah, I can’t wear that without passing out until late October. If I’m lucky.

So, the look today is one of my favorites and is perfect for changing seasons. The dark colors are great for Fall, but the shorts keep it cool enough to actually wear. Navy is one of my favorite colors and I definitely have a large section of it in my closet. One of my other favorites is leopard. I believe it is a neutral, and no one is going to change my mind on that one. When I saw these shorts combining my love for navy and leopard, I knew that I had to have them! Pairing them with a solid top is a good way to allow different accessories to be added. I chose gray for a Fall contemporary look, but you easily could wear hot pink for a fun Summer look. Here, I have on my favorite chunky necklace for a pop of color. The shoes are what can really sway your ensemble. Wearing black wedge heels gives the outfit an edge that works in the Fall. Wearing pink sandals makes the look a little sweeter. They both are cute, it just depends on what you are going for!
